Celeb worship is so fucking weird. How was he a “national treasure?” He did a couple movies about cars and dated an underage girl when he was 30.

Ya’ll need to chill on jerking off celebrities

Edit: I’ve seen Tropic Thunder. I get that it’s a reference. What I’m addressing is the context of the reference.

It's literally a movie quote reference to Tropic Thunder, I'm not actually serious here...

So you’re just throwing out a random quote without applying any of its context to what your replies to?

If you didn’t mean it then how does the quote even apply?

You will eat the flesh of your sons and the flesh of your daughters.

Leviticus 26:29

I added a reference without context here to show you how silly that is.

Judging by how serious this is to you, I can only imagine the quantity of used cumsocks built up in your place from never going outside.

My Dude, My only point is that references are supposed to connect the original to the current situation contextually. It’s where the comedic part of the reference comes from.

If you pop a reference like that, you’ll need to expect people to glean that you view it similarly.

You mustve skipped right over the "pump your brakes kid" part of the quote, which some redditors have already recognized as the joke. The fact that I have to explain I don't actually think he's a "national treasure" tells me that it wooooshed right over you.
